4/23/14 N.Y. St. Reg. PSC-16-14-00014-P
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
Proposed Action:
The Public Service Commission will decide whether to require New York State Gas & Electric Corporation (NYSEG) to provide service to gas customers in the Town of Plattsburgh, New York upon approval of a town wide CPCN and whether Public Service Law section 25-a applies.
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 65, 66 and 25-a
Subject:
Whether to order NYSEG to provide gas service to customers when an expanded CPCN is approved and impose Public Service Law section 25-a penalties.
Purpose:
To order gas service to customers in the Town of Plattsburgh after approval of a town wide CPCN and to impose penalties.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Public Service Commission is considering, when it acts on the Petition of New York State Electric & Gas Corporation for Authority to Exercise a Gas Franchise in the Town of Plattsburgh, whether or not to order NYSEG to provide service to customers in the areas within the newly adopted CPCN. The Commission will also consider whether to require NYSEG to comply with other provision of service and record-keeping requirements as allowed by law.
The Commission is also considering whether application of Public Service Law § § 25 and 25-a is warranted due to NYSEG’s provision of service to customers outside its current CPCN in the Town of Plattsburgh.
